BMW SERVICE
BMW recommends you have your maintenance and repair work performed by
an authorized BMW center.

MAINTAINING YOUR BMW VEHICLE

A well-maintained vehicle will help safeguard its operational performance,
road-safety and its reliability. This is why it is important to follow and perform
BMW’s recommended periodic vehicle inspections and maintenance service
tasks as indicated by your vehicle’s Maintenance Service Display, along with
the other maintenance work described in this booklet.
Damage, including consequential damage, which results from lack of or
improper maintenance is not covered under the BMW New Vehicle
Limited Warranty for Passenger Cars and Light Trucks.

MAINTENANCE INTERVALS
Maintenance intervals on motor vehicles were conventionally based solely on
a fixed time period or a specified amount of accumulated driving mileage.
However, operational and driving conditions have a major influence on
your vehicle’s routine maintenance requirements; the distance traveled is
only one of these significant factors. A vehicle used for short trips in the
city with numerous cold starts, prolonged periods of idling, stop-and-go
driving, and high engine speeds during acceleration may require more
frequent maintenance intervals than a vehicle that is driven long distances at
moderate engine speeds.
Your BMW vehicle uses sensors and algorithms together with the elapsed
time and the driving distance/profile to monitor and evaluate your vehicle’s
maintenance service needs. This information is then used to adapt
dynamically the parameters used to forecast the applicable maintenance
service task intervals.

THE BMW MAINTENANCE SYSTEM

All BMW vehicles are equipped with an integrated BMW Maintenance
System. This maintenance “reminder” system helps ensure that the vehicle
inspections and maintenance service tasks are performed at the forecasted
intervals that apply to your vehicle.

1
The BMW Maintenance System display provides the vehicle operator access
to the current status information for the following maintenance service tasks:
Z Engine oil (date and miles)
Z Vehicle check (date and miles)
Z Front brake pads (miles)
Z Rear brake pads (miles)
Z Brake fluid (date)
Z 1200 Mile running-in service (date and miles) (Applicable to BMW M
vehicles only)
For each specific maintenance service task, either the future date (month/
year), remaining miles or both are provided as noted above. The system
monitors variable inputs to forecast the intervals and alert the driver when
one or more specific maintenance tasks should be performed.
NOTE: For certain vehicles, the status of the front and rear brake pads will
only be observable in the maintenance system’s display when there are
approximately 2,000 miles or less remaining before a brake service will be
required to be performed.
For information about the vehicle’s maintenance system displays, please
refer to the Maintenance Service Display Overview section beginning on page
4.
The following “combine with Engine oil” maintenance service tasks may
be identified as needing to be performed with a specific occurrence of the
“Engine oil” service task (service counter number):
Z Cabin Microfilter(s)
Z Engine air filter(s)
Z Spark plugs
Z Final drive oil (Applicable M vehicles only)
Although these items do not appear in the BMW Maintenance System’s
display in the vehicle, these services should be performed when your vehicle’s
engine oil is changed in accordance with the interval identified by your
vehicle’s BMW Maintenance System.
For more information on your vehicle’s maintenance services requirements,
procedures and intervals, please refer the Maintenance Service Summary
section beginning on page 9.

2
The BMW Maintenance System also includes an option to set service
reminders for the following state-specific mandatory vehicle inspections,
including:
Z Vehicle safety inspection; and/or
Z Emissions test
The corresponding interval data for these inspections can be inputted into the
BMW Maintenance System by a service provider; they are not determined by
the vehicle.
For your convenience, you may also wish to have your authorized BMW center
perform the work necessary to fulfill these state inspection requirements in
your area concurrent with the maintenance services specified above when
possible.
Should you request more frequent maintenance service than is indicated
by the BMW Maintenance System during the coverage period, the cost of
these services will not be covered by the BMW Maintenance Program.

SERVICE DATA — REMOTE CONTROL KEY

Maintenance service task status information for your BMW vehicle is
continually updated and stored in your remote control key.
Your authorized BMW center can access this data and consult with you about
applicable service procedures and tasks for your vehicle.
Therefore, always provide your service consultant with the most recent
remote control key that was used to operate the vehicle when servicing your
vehicle at a BMW center.

VEHICLE STORAGE
Disconnecting the battery during periods of long-term vehicle storage will
interrupt the calculation of time-dependent maintenance services.
In this situation, BMW recommends that you have all your time-based
maintenance services, such as brake fluid, engine oil and cabin microfilter,
brought up to the correct date by an authorized BMW center.

3
ENGINE OIL
2022 model year vehicles are factory-filled with:
Z BMW-approved fully synthetic oil for gasoline engines
Engine oil should be changed when the vehicle’s engine is at operating
temperature.
If an engine oil service is being performed or you need to add engine oil
between changes, please refer to the Owner’s Manual for the recommended
engine oil for your BMW vehicle.

LONG-TERM RATED FLUIDS AND OILS

The following systems and assemblies are factory-filled with long-term rated
fluid and oil; fluid replacement is only necessary when repairs are being
performed (unless otherwise noted):
Z Engine cooling system (antifreeze/coolant)
Z Automatic and manual transmissions
Z All-wheel drive transfer cases (except when indicated by the vehicle)

REGULAR CHECKS — VEHICLE OPERATOR

In addition to the maintenance service procedure information contained in
this booklet, BMW recommends that you regularly check (when refueling, for
example), and address when necessary, the following items:
Z Washer fluid level
Z Engine oil level
Z Coolant level
Z Brake fluid level
Z Tires — pressure, condition and wear
Please refer to the Owner’s Manual for additional information.

Service Advisor at your authorized BMW center has a device called a key
reader. When your Service Advisor inserts your key into the key reader, all
pertinent vehicle and servicing data will be available, and a customized
maintenance checklist is printed out based on the specific operations called
for by the Condition Based Service.

 MAINTENANCE SERVICE SUMMARY
The maintenance service tasks outlined in this section are based on intervals of:
Z Time; and/or
Z Mileage; or combined with
Z Performing a specified occurrence of a maintenance service task. Such intervals are primarily determined by the

Maintenance service tasks not covered by the maintenance program can be
